Ngadlu tampinthi ngadlu Kaurna Miyurna yartangka. Munaintya puru purruna ngadlu-itya. Munaintyanangku yalaka tarrkarriana tuntarri.

We acknowledge we are on Kaurna Miyurna land. The Dreaming is still living. From the past, in the present, into the future, forever.

Cultural Sensitivity Warning
It is a condition of use of the cultural components of the Museum Archives that users ensure that any disclosure of information contained in this collection is consistent with the views and sensitivities of Indigenous people. Users are warned that there may be words and descriptions that may be culturally sensitive and which might not normally be used in certain public or community contexts. Users should also be aware that some records document research into people and cultures using a scientific research model dating from the first half of the twentieth century, and depicts people as research subjects in ways which may today be considered offensive. Some records contain terms and annotations that reflect the author's attitude or that of the period in which the item was written, and may be considered inappropriate today in some circumstances. Users should be aware that in some Indigenous communities, hearing names of deceased persons might cause sadness or distress, particularly to the relatives of these people. Furthermore, certain totemic symbols may also have prohibitions relating to the age, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. Records included may be subject to access conditions imposed by Indigenous communities and/or depositors. Users are advised that access to some materials may be subject to these terms and conditions that the Museum is required to maintain.

'Place Names: S.E. of S. Australia'

Full title includes the words 'To Sort' in pencil

The cards in this box relate to Tindale's South East of South Australia place names project. Header cards include: Place Name Refs.; Place Names References; Place Names; SE SA Tribal Status?; To Be Sorted, Cockburn To be Checked and Evaluated; Outside Area of Gazeteer; Murray River; West Coast S. Aust.; N. Flinders Ra and North; False Names and Coined Ones.

  • 'Place Name Refs.' (1.8 cm)
    The cards in this section contain bibliographic references.

  • 'Place Names References' (1.2 cm)
    These cards appear to consist chiefly of working notes and contain bibliographic references to both Tindale manuscript materials and published literature sources.

  • 'Place Names'
    This header card carries the note: 'these areas are to receive special attention & vocabulary searches'.

  • 'SE SA Tribal Status?' (0.1cm)
    This section contains two cards.

Some of these place names relate to areas outside the South East of South Australia.
